Abstract: A method includes displaying a plurality of computer-generated objects, including a first computer-generated object at a first position within an environment and a second computer-generated object at a second position within the environment. The first computer-generated object corresponds to a first user interface element that includes a first set of controls for modifying a content item. The method includes, while displaying the plurality of computer-generated objects, obtaining extremity tracking data. The method includes moving the first computer-generated object from the first position to a third position within the environment based on the extremity tracking data. The method includes, in accordance with a determination that the third position satisfies a proximity threshold with respect to the second position, merging the first computer-generated object with the second computer-generated object in order to generate a third computer-generated object for modifying the content item. The method includes displaying the third computer-generated object.

Abstract: A method includes displaying a plurality of computer-generated objects, and obtaining finger manipulation data from a finger-wearable device via a communication interface. In some implementations, the method includes receiving an untethered input vector that includes a plurality of untethered input indicator values. Each of the plurality of untethered input indicator values is associated with one of a plurality of untethered input modalities. In some implementations, the method includes obtaining proxy object manipulation data from a physical proxy object via the communication interface. The proxy object manipulation data corresponds to sensor data associated with one or more sensors integrated in the physical proxy object. The method includes registering an engagement event with respect to a first one of the plurality of computer-generated objects based on a combination of the finger manipulation data, the untethered input vector, and the proxy object manipulation data.

Abstract: A method is performed at an electronic device with one or more processors, a non-transitory memory, a display, and a communication interface provided to communicate with a finger-wearable device. The method includes, while displaying a plurality of content items on the display, obtaining finger manipulation data from the finger-wearable device via the communication interface. The method includes selecting a first one of the plurality of content items based on a first portion of the finger manipulation data in combination with satisfaction of a proximity threshold. The first one of the plurality of content items is associated with a first dimensional representation. The method includes changing the first one of the plurality of content items from the first dimensional representation to a second dimensional representation based on a second portion of the finger manipulation data.

Abstract: In one implementation, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores program instructions computer-executable on a computer to perform operations. The operations include presenting first content representing a virtual reality setting on a display of an electronic device. Using an input device of the electronic device, input is received representing a request to present a view corresponding to a physical setting in which the electronic device is located. In accordance with receiving the input, the first content is simultaneously presented on the display with second content representing the view corresponding to the physical setting obtained using an image sensor of the electronic device.
